 Langley Respess: Financial Advisor | Connector | Steward of Wealth & Community

For over 25 years, Langley has helped individuals and families navigate their financial journeys with clarity, confidence, and care. As a Private Wealth Advisor with UBS Financial Services Inc., he focuses on comprehensive wealth management strategies that emphasize capital preservation, retirement income planning, and total portfolio management. His entrepreneurial mindset and genuine desire to serve others have been cornerstones of his long-standing client relationships—many of which span generations.

Langley holds a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and an M.B.A. from UNC’s Kenan-Flagler Business School. Prior to entering the financial industry, he served as a Lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force, an experience that deepened his commitment to leadership, integrity, and service.

His work doesn’t stop at finance. Langley is passionate about giving back to the community and building connections. He currently serves as Co-Chair of the Capital Campaign for Atlanta Classical Academy and has previously held leadership roles with the Metro Atlanta Red Cross and the UNC Alumni Club of Atlanta. He has also mentored Scouts through merit badge clinics and outdoor leadership.

Langley and his wife are raising three children and enjoy spending time together hiking and fishing in the Appalachian Mountains. Whether helping clients prepare for life’s biggest moments or exploring mountain trails with his family, Langley leads with intention and heart.

I joined UBS in 2011 and The Respess Team in 2014 after gaining invaluable years of experience working with advisors in New York, Washington D.C., Sarasota and Denver.

With our clients, I focus on exceptional service while being responsible for all administrative, operational and compliance functions of our team. I attribute much of my success to being proactive and diligent and am gratified by the long-term, solid relationships developed with clients and their families as a result.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, one rescue dog and two very talkative parrots.

I joined UBS in 2015, and have developed an in-depth knowledge of UBS wealth management solutions to help clients pursue their goals.  I understand that each client is different, and I tailor my approach to meet each client's specific needs.  Our team focuses on laying out clear options and offering straightforward advice and guidance to help clients attain their financial aspirations.  In doing so, we provide clients access to comprehensive financial planning techniques, including topics like retirement and legacy planning.

Our team also provides wealth management strategies, including investment management analysis and solutions. This advice dovetails with each client's financial plan to help them achieve their long-term goals.

My professional and educational achievements include:
- B.A., Accounting, Western Carolina University
- MBA, Western Carolina University
- FINRA Securities Licenses 7 and 66 in all US states
- CRPC® - Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor
